Chapter 4 Application Templates

Application templates are used to predefine the job requirements available to users when creating jobs. Specifically:

  • The Application Templates page (default) lists the application templates available to you when creating a job. Depending on how the application template was setup, you can also make small changes to the application template at job submission.
  • If your credentials include the Templates Admin permission you can view and edit every application template in your Viewpoint configuration. You can also create and import application templates using this page.

Viewpoint is delivered with several application templates that you can customize for your environment or to use as a guide for creating your own application templates. See 4.9 Provided Application Templates for more information.

The admin user (for example, "moab-admin") can perform application template functions programmatically in Viewpoint; instead of using the Application Templates page in the portal. See 4.14 Application Template API.
